Hi 937619! - Welcome
Did you follow the Mac instructions in the OSCAR Wiki? If not, read this and see if it resolves your problem.

I'm using a Mac Mini for Livestream stuff. Some of my plug-ins need to be added with a right click, sometimes also accompanied with the Command key.

the wiki instructions look dated to me.

after canceling that dialog, you should open System Settings, click on "security and privacy", scroll to the bottom, and there should be some verbiage there about how the system prevented Oscar from opening. there is a button that says, IIRC, "open anyway". the system will once again warn you that the developer is unknown, but this time you can click "open anyway" or whatever it is, and OSCAR will launch.
